Verdict

Willie Mullins hasn't won this since Thousand Stars in 2009 but has five entries here. The four-year-old Ciel De Neige, who was having his first start for the yard when a close third in the Fred Winter in March, is likely to have improved in the interim and could be on a very lenient mark. But JANIDIL (NAP) has made great strides for the yard and had plenty in hand when landing a Grade B handicap at Down Royal. He's been hit with a 10lb rise but could be good enough though top weight shouldn't prevent a big run from Mister Blue Sky, a Grade 2 winner here in April and race-fit after finishing third behind Honeysuckle here last month. Ilikedwayurthinkin has completed a Galway double in great style and though hit with a massive 16lb rise is still capable of a big run. Articulum has been in good form over fences and reverts to hurdles on a 16lb lower mark.
